EQUINE INFLUENZA.
An Epidemic of tho Diseaso Now
Pievalling Among Horses A
Veterinarian's Advice.
An epidemic of equine influeiva is
now prevailing among tho horses of
this city and Is likely to prevail for
some weeks to come, unless it Is
broken up by a cold snap.
A largo number of the horses In this
city me ycaily aflllcted with this dis
easo dining the months of September
and October, but this year's outbreak
Is much inoio wldespiead than any
which has prevailed for several yeais.
Dr. Jacob Hclmer, tho veteilnarlan,
said last night to a Tilbuno man that
tho disease Is a specific fever associ
ated with luilnmmatlon of the mem
branes of the nose and throat. It Is
not especially serious of Itself, he said,
unless the speclllc poison of the dls
eae effects the blood, causing a de
ptesslon which sometimes picdlsposes
to struetuial ( hanges in the organs,
and sometimes to death.
"Fiom tho number of cases I have
so far tieatcd this year and from con-
ri saltans I have bad with other et
ci In. u tans," said he, "I believe I am
safe in saying that probably seventy
live per cent, of tho horses In this
city will be affected with the disease
this year befoio It runs Its course,
unless wo have a cold snap to knock It
out."
Tho (list svuiptoms of the disease
differ In dlffeient ears. Sometimes
It Is liill.iiiitnatlon of the animal's eyes
and sometimes ,i cough. This year
the cough is the flist symptom.
When asked to give some ndvlce to
horse owners whose horses may show
symptoms of the disease, tho doctor
said:
"I would advise nil poisons having
hoi sos showing tho first symptoms of
the disease to administer no medicines
that ate weakening, If nny me admlu
Isteied nt all It Is best to keep tho
horso at work or to keep exercising
It unless a fever sets In. If lover sots
In the horse should bo kept In the
stable and a veterinarian should be
sent for nt once."
The doctor said that a large number
of tho horses nflllctod with tho dis
ease never get beyond the first symp
toms and soon recover, without having
a fever at all. Tho doctor said that
he evpeeted the epidemic to last well
Into October, If the weather does not
become much colder. Tho percentage
of deaths fiom the disease this year Is
a little higher than usual, tho doctor
thought.

old office In tho gift of the conven
tion. As yet theio has been no slate made.
Tho leaders aro waiting on aMtornoy
K. C. Xevvcomb. If lie will agree to
tun for judge, an effort will bo made
to Induce Dr. Saltry to allow the nom
ination for coroner to go to some phy
sician up the valley, Dr. Kelly, of
Olyphant, being generally preferred.
If Mr. Nowcomb declines to enter the
lists the Democratic leaders will give
the convention mighty little considera
tion. They feel that with Mr. New
comb at tho head of tho ticket there
Is sonio hope of making a showing.
Without New comb It it a case of "hap
less cause."
IS XON-COMM1TTAL.
Mr. Xcwcomb Is still non-committal,
but, according to reliable leports,
be was yesterday leaning at a very
decided angle towards the judicial
nomination. A Tilbuno reporter sought
to havo hi in eipress himself, but the
most that could bo gotten out of hhn
was that he had not yet came to a
conclusion as to whether or not ho
would .seek the ofllce.
It ho does not nccept the ofllie the
nomination will go to W. A. Wilcox.
A word from S. R. Pi Ice that ho wants
tho nomination might tuin all calcu
lations topsy-tin vy. It Is not likely,
however, that Mr. Pike will be. heard
fiom one way or tho other.
The nomination for county control
ler will go to P. W. Costello, county
auditor. Patrick Hlewltt, foimeily
city engineer, will be opposed for the
nomination for county suiveyor by
Milton Mitchell, who was nominated
by the Prohibitionists last week with
out consulting him.
Tho chances aio that Xewcoinb, Cos
tello, Kelly and Rlewltt will be the
make-up of tho slate.
